It is known for not being a civilisation. "Civilisation" implies major urban developments, a writing system, a formal legal system, a a single language and established centres of trade and commerce. The Iroquois league had none of these things.

They were an alliance of 6 tribes speaking 6 different but related languages, living in many small communities, with no written records.

They were powerful because of their numerical supremacy over smaller neighbouring tribes.
